This is a great piece of recovery gear. I spend most of my time at a desk. When I work out at lunch, it is nice to put this on in the afternoon. I don't know what it does exactly, but I know it feels good when I put it on and my shoulders feel more relaxed even after I take it off. I usually wear it for 30 minutes at a time. I bought a large (185-225 lbs) and weigh 210. It fits me well.

This is great for helping with back. I am wearing it during the day sitting at my computer and it helps push my shoulders back. Good for posture. I think this one is strong enough but we will see if I think I need the stronger version.

This is the "casual" (read: easiest to wear for a longer time frame) bowtie. It is comfortable and while still doing posture training, I was able to even wear it in bed when having some shoulder issues.

Ehh I think if this is needed you prob have some mobility issues you might need to work on but can be useful in the meantime

Quality price to help with posture and upper back pain. I recommend this to my patients to help with upper back pain and strains and have gotten good response.

Used this to help recover from a shoulder tweak. Would have liked to grab the vice version simply because I had a rough time at first in getting it on and off being a man of size. Also could only wear it about 10-15 mins at a time before my arm started to fall asleep. But overall it definitely helped my shoulder and got me back in the game.

Game changer for my posture and shoulders. I often wear this product while sitting back and relaxing.

For me this has been absolutely amazing for my shoulders. I happen to be right in the middle of the L size so when I put it on it's tight enough that I feel it in a good way, but it's not so tight that it hurts or cuts off circulation. I was having a lot of pain in my shoulders from almost every exercise and after wearing this for about a week, maybe a couple hours a day, it vanished completely. Like gone. I can't imagine it works like this for most people but for me this has been basically a minor miracle. I still put it on for a while sitting at my desk each day and I have been doing dips, rows, overhead presses, all totally pain free for the first time in months. Couldn't have asked for better results personally.
Also- I attached a daisy chain to the loop in the back so I could reach behind and pull it down. Feels better if it's adjusted periodically.

I probably need to size up, but I definitely lose circulation of my fingers if I wear it for more than 10 minutes. It does help my posture on a couple movements and I like to use it when I am doing tricep push downs.

Got this as a Christmas present a few years back. Use it mostly when sitting at a desk or on a long drive. Feels good when using it but I don’t feel like it does much long term when taking it off.
